	Ratify the Constitution? Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

My friends and comrades, our time runs thin. We must approve our government and set up the offices of the state.

Current Constitution Candidate:

quote: - Administrator: Runs stuff, plays the game, organizes the team, is also the tie-breaker for polls. - Minister of War: Moves units, plans wars and military action. - Minister of the Interior: Determines build queues, orchestrates worker actions, establishes research, etc. - Minister of Foreign Affairs: Concerned with all things to do with other teams, including trade. Whichever nominee for each office gets the most votes in a 4-day election obtains the office. Each minister will hold office for 3 weeks before a new election is to be held. There are no restrictions upon how many times a member can hold office. The only polls that requires official 2/3 support of the team will be declarations of war, impeachment of ministers, changing government and removing a member from the team. Any other decisions will be undertaken by a vote amongst the entire team, and the option to recieve the most votes is the chosen one.

Vote yes or no as far as if this document should be ratified (can be modified later, we just need some framework and ministers before the game starts ).

We better get those minister polls up and running soon. If this passes, we'll need to have them started by tomorrow.

I believe research and trade should be separate of managing the cities, so no, this constitution cannot pass as written.

You forgot the great banana... I am very disappointed...

Anyway, the ratification looks great! Lets just pass this thing so we can get on with setting our government.

Ah - I see you discussed this elsewhere. OK, fine. What we haven't talked about though - is everyone going to be in the government, or are there members who are not in office?

I'm guess Minister of the Interior would be in charge of the Economy.

Looks like the Minister of the Interior is going to be a HUGE JOB!!! Let's see, that's the economy, trade, research, workers, oh and city management

That's why ministers can give off duties to senate members.

I just voted "yes" for the sake of getting this organization started, but we should look at this subject later, too. See how it goes.

We function more as a Monarchy anyway, with the following caviots:

Declarations of war and treaties require 2/3 vote to pass.

All major decisions must have consent of 2/3 of the Ministers. (Changing barracks to granary....)

I put the "Constitution" in the Game Status thread, and will ask an Op to de-top this.
